Ppl have even been switching the front ends of coupes and 4-doors, so there's hope, but I don't have pics of them to give a guess.
They're compatible but there is a peak(2 of them), for the 4-D and I don't remember seeing that on the coupe(coupes have a straighter front line on the bottom).

12 and 13's are probably the same, I'm not sure about the 14's.....

id say that it wouldnt. as @Monk said the 13+ sedans front end has a different line as the coupes. there are very similar style lips that we can steal from subie sti's that fit with minor modifications. here is a diy on how a member put his on and the one he chose looks kinda like the one you like.

Search ebay for that bayson R company. I know they put out a lot of stuff for the civics. Well, bodykit wise anyway. If it isn't specifically made for your car you can definitely expect some custom fitment headaches. Even ones made for your car will require some custom install skills im sure. Other than the HFP kit stuff most aftermarket require some work to fit perfect. Just depends how willing you are to spend the time getting it done.

Cool man. Take some pics and do a write up for us when you get it. It would be nice to see if its an easy install or really involved. Plus I bet it will look great once its done.
